Think about the case when creating nice design job is done by frameworks like twitter bootstrap and all you have to do is good UX. Isnt UX just a set of rules?

For me, to some level its just set of rules - mostly in the case of UX which is far more important than fancy design. But, i agree, that there is no way you can create good logo without design sense and art background :)

Thanks for insight! I hope that somebody somehow will test this hypotesis :)

The hard truth is that 9 of 10 applications (commercial or start-ups) are just mistakes. So whats the point of delivering well documented and beautiful designed app that nobody use? That is why i think that hackatons in order to deliver good enough product and test your hypotesis does make sense. If it`s a market fit, then i agree - lets clean up the mess and develop it in normal way

Thanks for your insight from a serial hackatoner perspective. It`s true, there is no way we can make "commercial hackatons" day after day, that would miss the point. But to make from time to time fast MVP with client, it doesnt sound so bad IMO

Thanks for meaningful insight, but I have to disagree. The concept itself is to lower the barrier of giving a reference so that employee can easily inform chosen friends whom may be interested. It is still so much better than not having resume - employer gets probably good lead. Moreover HR can ask referrer about that person and see if he have any more valuable informations
